It is hard to guess which species of spider is meant. There may be many Spiders that observers would judge to be "lime green." The bites of almost all spiders are toxic. However, none of the spiders that can give humans medically significant bites happen to be green.

The most likely candidate to be described as a lime green spider is one fairly large and very attractive species of Lynx spider. Lynx spiders do not trap their prey in webs. They hunt for their prey in the branches, flowers, or leaves of vegetation. If someone were quick enough to actually grab one, he or she might get a defensive bite. It would hurt, but a bee sting can have much greater consequences.

Yes, the green lynx spider is venomous, but its bite is not considered harmful to humans. It may cause some localized pain, redness, and swelling, similar to a bee sting.

All spiders are poisonous, but not all are harmful to humans. The lynx spider does not poison you but its bite is very painful and does make your skin swell and burn.

No spider is poisonous but nearly all are venomous - they need to inject the toxin for it to cause harm.

Is a black and white spider poisonous?

No. Lynx Spiders are not poisonous. For instance, birds can eat them without any problem. Humans sometimes cook and eat tarantulas. Lynx spiders, and most other spiders, are venomous. If a lynx spider bites you it will inject some venom. This venom is toxic to humans but not so toxic as to make a lynx spider bite a medical problem.
